Prison is where anarchy came into my life full force. It was during the last 7 or 8 months of my sentence. And I began understanding the world around me better than any other time in my life

“I'm not on the run. I am merely being sensible, refusing to be held as a prisoner of war of Israel in a British prison” Middlebrough said in a statement obtained by TEI. “Outrageously, 23 of my heroic and honorable co-defendants remain in prison following our kidnapping by counterterrorism police.”
Exclusive: Absconded activist refuses to be “prisoner of war”

If you’re one of the people trying to say Democrats have some super secret plan to best Republicans, then you’re the only one who’s been fooled.

And I've been doing politics for long enough to know clearly that the entire Senate Democratic caucus agreed to this decision to fold. Open your eyes. The 8 who "broke" did so with the complete blessing of Schumer and their colleagues. You don't have to play along because this is not a game. The end

By the way, this has been the Democrats party for decades. They’ve skated by for years on this “at least we’re not republicans” bullshit, meanwhile enabling them at every turn.
This is just the time during which you can ill afford their feckless ways.
